On Tuesday, July 9, master storyteller Margaret Clauder will have a performance centered on animal adventures using puppets, songs, humor and magic to educate the audience.
Finally on Tuesday, July 16, the series concludes with Elizabeth Kahura, a storyteller, educator, performer and singer, born in Kenya. She will take children through an African safari and share the importance of cultural values and how they influence identities, as well as the interdependence of people in a community.
